Description
The Bloxworth ‘105 has vintage character running through its veins.
It starts with the precise brushed and polished surfaces of the 40mm stainless case, perfectly melding into one another with hints of high polish that set off against finely brushed and matt vapour blasted finishes.
Take the coin edged bezel with matt, vertical high grip splines that protrude just enough for perfect, secure grip, then transition into a highly polished chamfer framing the scratch resistant, lozenge smooth ceramic bezel insert.
There’s a sapphire ‘box’ domed crystal with hints of bluey purple thanks to it’s fine anti reflective inner coating. Sitting beneath lies a dual layer ‘sandwich’ dial with bold, soft tan luminous markers and matching pale sand colour infill on the square profile hands, framed in matt gunmetal with a bright orange tip adding a sporting contrast to the seconds hand. The recessed inner dial is finished with a sunray brushed surface that reflects light very differently to the gloss piano black upper layer with railway track outer minutes markings.
A fitted dark brown matt leather strap absorbs the light into its richly coloured knapped surface. Over time it develops a character all of its own as the knap slowly wears into smooth dark brown leather, perfectly complementing the black and tan layered dial.
The polished details continue with pebble-like case shoulders and the domed screw-down crown with high grip splines. Positioned at 4H to keep it out of harms way whilst avoiding any wrist pressure, the crown is recessed into the case with three seals working together to prevent water ingress. Every Bloxworth 3HD is tested at 200m in water so you never need to worry.
With quick change solid strap bars, a strap swap is the work of only a few moments and this model also works beautifully with a B07 steel bracelet, black rubber and black/brown heritage webbing.
